Fishing grounds refer to areas in oceans, rivers, and lakes where fish are abundant and can be caught. They can be categorized into different types, such as coastal fishing grounds, which are near shorelines and rich in diverse species, and offshore fishing grounds, which are farther out and often target larger fish. Other types include freshwater fishing grounds, such as lakes and rivers, and specialized areas like spawning grounds, where fish gather to reproduce. Each type of fishing ground has unique characteristics that influence the types and quantities of fish available.
Over fishing has hurt the area.

Because Newfoundland is conveniently located near excellent fishing grounds.
One of the best fishing grounds in the world is found off the coast of Australia. This is home to the Great Barrier Reef.
Fishermen from various European countries, including England and France, discovered the fishing grounds off Newfoundland in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The most notable early explorer of these fishing grounds was John Cabot, an Italian navigator sailing under the English flag.
They are called the Grand Banks.
